Hammer92 & Semico23: Always Someone Fighting a Harder Battle.
Hammer92 & Semico23-(Offical LOG start) Jan 1st-May1st (2013)
There is always someone out there fighting a harder battle. When I hear people make up excuses of "why not", I can't help but think of the people who do it with truly motivation obstacles they are facing. It is all relative. This year I have: Bulged two discs, tore left patella tendon, dislocated shoulder, gotten 4 teeth knocked out, and been sick five times. I am not stating this for pity: tears bring empathy, sweat brings results. With that said, I am turning the page to a new decade (20s) on the 29th, and only looking forwards from here. I am writing this because as I look back on this log, however long it may be, from now... I will realize my realtive struggles and how they only made me stronger.
**We will have a daily goal, weekly, and long-term.
*Our overall goal is to go bed better than we woke up: Physically AND Mentally.
Throughout these nexts months, Semico23 and myself will post workout, diet, and daily goals/ accomplishments.

Hammer92 & Semico23: Always Someone Fighting a Harder Battle.
Being the guy that constantly wanted progress but never had the determination to do something about it, I have drastically turned my life around and have pushed myself every day with the expectation of a better Sean tomorrow. In the next 5 months I have many strength/body composition/overall health goals that I want to achieve, but the real goal is to take the steps to improve myself every day. I am at the point where everything seems to be going along smoothly with school, family and life where I can push myself for certain goals that I want. Hammer92 and I have always pushed eachother and this will just be another step in our journey.

first thing i would like to say, is that this is a max out day. and i only do them once every couple of months to track progress. i am no an ego lifter 100% of the time. but i do admit i enjoy lifting heavy weight(for me). and i think enjoying your training is pretty important

**Coming off the flu, had that throw up feeling everyset but made it through! Only gets easier from here
Missed about 100 shots
Then took 500.
Solid Day.
Many would argue this is overtraining,
I am consuming a lot of calories, and seeing progress so I am going to continue until it's time to make a change!

*I do not have any "New Year's" resolutions. New Year's is a calendar date. A calendar is a representation of time. Time is constant. When I have a resolution, I start that moment. I have a resolution everyday.

Self-pity is easily the most destructive of the nonpharmaceutical narcotics; it is addictive, gives momentary pleasure and separates the victim from reality.” -John W. Gardner

First Day back from Miami and first time lifting in 8 days. decided to just hit all of the upper body since i knew strength and endurance would be down. Also some kind of left shoulder pain ive had for about 4 days. no clue what it is. isnt effecting lifts other than mentally knowing its not 100%

Felt really good to get back in the gym and do something active. Much better than doing cardio every other day. Had a lot of fun and am excited to get back to the grind tomorrow and destroy my legs.
overall felt really good about the session. i knew my speed on the deadlift would be down since i had the time off from lifting because of vacation but i was really happy with my squats and the work i did put in on deadlift. my weight managed to stay about the same while i was on vacation which honestly surprised me. so nothing but up from here.
